Multi Receipts Detector API Python

The Python OCR SDK supports the Multi Receipts Detector API.

Using the sample below, we are going to illustrate how to extract the data that we want using the OCR SDK.
Multi Receipts Detector sample

Quick-Start

from mindee import Client, PredictResponse, product

# Init a new client
mindee_client = Client(api_key="my-api-key")

# Load a file from disk
input_doc = mindee_client.source_from_path("/path/to/the/file.ext")

# Load a file from disk and parse it.
# The endpoint name must be specified since it cannot be determined from the class.
result: PredictResponse = mindee_client.parse(product.MultiReceiptsDetectorV1, input_doc)

# Print a summary of the API result
print(result.document)

# Print the document-level summary
# print(result.document.inference.prediction)

Output (RST):

Field Types

Standard Fields

These fields are generic and used in several products.

BasicField

Each prediction object contains a set of fields that inherit from the generic BaseField class.
A typical BaseField object will have the following attributes:

  • value (Union[float, str]): corresponds to the field value. Can be None if no value was extracted.
  • confidence (float): the confidence score of the field prediction.
  • bounding_box ([Point, Point, Point, Point]): contains exactly 4 relative vertices (points) coordinates of a right rectangle containing the field in the document.
  • polygon (List[Point]): contains the relative vertices coordinates (Point) of a polygon containing the field in the image.
  • page_id (int): the ID of the page, is None when at document-level.
  • reconstructed (bool): indicates whether an object was reconstructed (not extracted as the API gave it).

Note: A Point simply refers to a List of two numbers ([float, float]).

Aside from the previous attributes, all basic fields have access to a custom __str__ method that can be used to print their value as a string.

PositionField

The position field PositionField does not implement all the basic BaseField attributes, only bounding_box, polygon and page_id. On top of these, it has access to:

  • rectangle ([Point, Point, Point, Point]): a Polygon with four points that may be oriented (even beyond canvas).
  • quadrangle ([Point, Point, Point, Point]): a free polygon made up of four points.

Attributes

The following fields are extracted for Multi Receipts Detector V1:

List of Receipts

receipts (List[PositionField]): Positions of the receipts on the document.

for receipts_elem in result.document.inference.prediction.receipts:
    print(receipts_elem.polygon)
